Filter by:The purpose of the study is to evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcome of MimetikOss 3D as a patient-specific bone substitute in regeneration of osseous defects in several maxillofacial indications. The primary objective is to evaluate the capacity of MimetikOss 3D to perform bone substitute requirements, i.e long-term regeneration of bony tissue in complex defects without detrimental resorption. The secondary main objectives are to assess the versatility of MimetikOss 3D by the variety of maxillofacial sites regenerated and the surgical technique improvement (in terms of surgery duration, blood loss, ease-of-use of the product and surgeon satisfaction).
The aim of this study is to propose a modification of the original periostal pocket flap technique consisting in replacing the xenograft by a conglomerate which contains autologous bone obtained from the future implant site through biological drilling technique and PRGF (Plasma Rich in Growth Factors)
to validate the capacity of bio-oss collagen (xenograft block+ collagen type I) placed solely without a membrane on a thin (0.5-1.8mm) buccal bone wall after delayed implant placement to regenerate bone volume. 30 patients requiring dental implants and presenting a deficient bone ridge (a ridge with reduced marginal bone width ≤ 2mm) were selected. The bone regeneration technique used in this study: - Pre-operatively: - cone beam computed tomography CBCT - 1 minute mouthwash with a 0.12% Chlorhexidine solution - Full thickness muco-periosteal flap and ridge curettage. - Drilling and implant placement (any implant system) - Adjustment and placement of the "Bio-Oss Collagen" in the regeneration site without a fixation membrane. - Hermetic wound closure with U-shaped and simple stitches using 5/0 and 6/0 PGA resorbable material. - Post-operatively: - Medication: - Amoxicilline (1g) or Clindamycine (300mg) - Analgesic, (paracetamol + codeine) - Mouthwash with a solution of 0.12% Chlorhexidine - cone beam computed tomography CBCT - 4 months postoperatively: CBCT Bio-oss collagen is placed on the buccal side after implant placement and adapted to have the bone defect morphology. the full thickness flap is then closed without membrane placement and the bone bock is fixed in place through sutures only. CBCT images were taken immediately postoperatively and at 4 months after bone grafting. Imaging superposition (on ITK software) and measurements of buccal bone gain were effectuated to evaluate the efficiency of this regeneration technique. evaluation of buccal bone regeneration through linear radiographic measurements and evaluation of the % of grafted bone resorption will indicate the success of this technique
The aim of this study is to evaluate the outcome of three-dimensional bone regeneration procedures using thin cortical porcine xenograft plates in combination with autogenous bone chips compared with thin autogenous cortical plates and autogenous bone chips.
Statins (HMG-CoA) are widely used in treating patients with hypercholesterolemia. They have also been studied because of their anabolic effects on bone tissue. Statins increase the expression of Bone Morphogenetic Proteins-2 (BMP-2) and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF), which are of important scientific interest in bone regeneration therapy. However, they are expensive and have a short half-life. Therefore, a molecule promoting the endogenous production of BMP-2 and VEGF would be valuable for the field of bone tissue engineering. This study aims to evaluate dimensional changes, level of soft tissue healing, pain/discomfort, and newly formed tissues in post-extraction sockets filling with Simvastatin (SIM) gel covered with polypropylene membranes. Thirty post-extraction sockets of posterior teeth will be randomized allocated in two groups: 1) extractions and socket filling with 1.2% SIM gel and membrane and 2) extraction and socket filling with placebo gel and membrane. The evaluation will be done through clinical analyzes, histomorphometry and micro-computed tomographic images, considering the dimensional changes, the quantity and the quality of tissue formation after extractions. Measurements will be taken before extraction (T1) and 90 days after the extraction (T2). In addition, the perception of pain will be analyzed. The hypothesis is that SIM associated with polypropylene membrane can enhance bone formation in post-extraction sockets compared with the control group.
Various graft materials are used to reconstruct bone defects in the jaws due to tooth loss, trauma, advanced periodontal diseases, pathological lesions and congenital disorders. The main features of an ideal bone graft are osteogenesis, osteoinduction and osteoconduction. Autogenous bone graft is considered as the gold standard among all bone graft materials. Because it has all the features that an ideal bone graft should have. However, there are some disadvantages such as donor site morbidity, obtaining limited amounts and high rates of resorption. Because of these disadvantages, other bone graft materials such as allografts, xenografts and alloplastic bone grafts are frequently used for bone augmentation. In the light of recent studies, the limits of conventional bone graft materials such as limited osteoconduction capacity and disease transmission have been clearly demonstrated. Due to the disadvantages of these materials, studies are directed to develop alternative graft materials. Aim of this study is to analyse the effects of autogenous dentin graft and mixture of autogenous dentin graft and platelet rich fibrin (PRF) applied to the tooth extraction sockets on bone healing process. A total of 57 extraction sockets in 9 patients who were planned to be treated with dental implant after tooth extraction were evaluated in this study. Extraction sockets were divided randomly into 3 groups. In the first group, sockets were filled with autogenous dentin graft (Group D-20 sockets). In the second group, sockets were filled with the mixture of PRF and autogenous dentin graft (Group DP-21 sockets). In the third group, sockets were left empty as control group (Group C-16 sockets). After 3 months, histological and immunohistochemical evaluations were performed on the samples taken during the implant surgery. Additionally, samples obtained from each group were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
Guided bone regeneration (GBR) has been the most frequently used option to treat bone ridge deficiencies, allowing to restore such defects in order to place bone-integrated dental implants. A few reports exist in the literature about the augmentation of mandibular horizontal ridge defects before implant placement. Published studies show a large variability of reported results regarding horizontal bone augmentation. This can be due to the use of different types of membranes and bone graft materials or a combination thereof. Likewise, an important percentage of graft reabsorption is reported. Although this technique is very much used, an important number of cases must be re-treated or require placing bone graft during implant installation surgery. Techniques are required in order to improve vascularization of the grafts during GBR technique with the aim to improve their clinical success. Recent studies show great interest on the application of shock waves in oral diseases associated to infection and bone loss. The shock waves are acoustic waves that have effects on human biological tissues, stimulating the neo-angiogenesis and the development of a hyper cellularity, showing repairing characteristics on tissues, and starting regenerative processes as a result of metabolism improvement and the increase of local circulation. The extra corporeal shock waves can activate the osteoblasts and their precursors and they have been widely used in orthopaedics for repairing bone fractures. Several clinical studies have shown the effectiveness and safety of shock wave therapy in myocardial revascularization, lithotripsy, cellulitis, volar fasciitis, osteonecrosis, bone fractures, and complicated injuries of soft tissues. No clinical studies exist that assess its effect on guided bone regeneration. The evidence related to the positive effects of the use of shock waves on bone regeneration suggests this treatment as a novelty and a promising therapy that combined with the GBR technique for the treatment of horizontal defects could have an important impact on the potentialization of its clinical effectiveness.
Two different surgical protocols for socket preservation were compared. Soft and hard tissue outcomes were measured clinically and radiographically at baseline and six months post operatively.
Objectives: The aim of the study was to compare histological and histomorphometric results of six bone substitute materials used as graft in two-stage maxillary sinus augmentation model, after 6-month-healing.
To evaluate dimensional bone alterations following horizontal ridge augmentation using guided bone regeneration (GBR) with or without autogenous block graft (ABG) for the rehabilitation of atrophic jaws with dental implants.
